Astigmatism Correction

Pre-existing
astigmatism may be corrected at the time of cataract surgery to
improve uncorrected vision, thereby reducing the need for glasses.
Astigmatism results ftom alteration in the shape of the cornea or
lens, causing distortion when viewing objects. Corneal astigmatism
may be corrected at the time of cataract surgery by placing incisions
in the cornea, more commonly referred to as limbal relaxing incisions
(LRI). For larger amounts of astigmatism, a toric intraocular lens
(IOL) may be placed during the time of cataract surgery. Sometimes,
residual astigmatism may be corrected with laser vision correction
months or years after surgery.

Testimonials

I feel so fortunate to have had Dr. Nemi recommended to me 8 years ago. I was one of his first patients. From the beginning he has made me feel I am his only patient. He listens to your questions and concerns with genuine interest. He takes time to explain what’s going on with complete thoroughness and honesty. He has a good bedside manner. He and his staff possess a high degree of competence. Dr. Nemi is truly an expert on the anatomy of the eye. He monitored my progression of cataracts to the stage surgery was necessary. The surgery drastically improved my quality of my life. I highly recommend Lotus Vision.
